The TV show winner wanted to offer help after hurricanes（飓风）hit the country last September.I’ve been seeing, all over the news, people lived too hard,”Evan said.“They can’t get fresh water, electricity. They can’t get really anything. I know I’m just a kid, but I think if a lot of people do something, a lot of things will get better.”He raises money by baking and taking online orders for homemade pies. He started cooking on a recent Friday night. By the next Sunday evening, he had filled orders for 420 pies—roasted chicken, cheeseburger and vegetarian—getting $18 for six pies and $30 for a dozen.For Evan’s out-of-town friends and supporters, he has also set up a crowdfunding（众筹）page. Through it, he’s already raised $1,500 in“virtual（虚拟的）pies”. He said fruit p ies are up next.His mom, Veronica Robinson, is in charge of delivering the pies around the city.“We’ve never done anything like this before,”she said.“But it’s a great idea, so I want to help him.”His baking will continue as well. This is because he heard on the news that it would take Puerto Rico years, maybe even 10 years, to recover（恢复）from the hurricanes.It’s not an easy job, especially for a kid with homework and Boy Scouts and friendships to tend to. But he doesn’t seem worried.“It’s what we’re sup posed to do,”he said.“I’m a human. They’re humans. Why shouldn’t help them?”88.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答问题）（12分）Travelers' talesEvery year, a magazine called Executive Travelorganizes a competition to find the best airline of theyear. Travelers from all over the world are invited tovote (投票) for the most punctual (准时的), the safestand the friendliest airline. The competition also invites them to tell their most horrible sto ries during their travels. Now let’s read some travelers’ tales of bad flying experiences.One traveler shared his story which happened on a certain African airline. Even if some passengers had boarding cards, they couldn’t still get the seats. They complained and shouted at the airport. Finally, the flight attendants solved the problem by setting a funny rule. Those passengers who ran fastest around the plane twice could get the seats at last.An overbooked flight that was going from Heathrow Airport to America gave another traveler a bit of a shock. Dressed only in trousers, a shirt and socks, the traveler had been allowed by the flight attendants to leave the aircraft to see if he could get a workmate aboard. But when he returned a few minutes later, he found the plane closed up and about to start moving --- with his shoes, wallet, passport and luggage on board. He knocked heavily on the door and then was allowed to get back inside.Luggage is also a rich source of horror stories. There was the unlucky traveler who leftChicago where the temperature was minus(零下) 11 degrees centigrade. He was going to attend an important meeting in Dallas where the temperature was as high as 26.7 degrees centigrade. Unfortunately, his suitcase had gone to Los Angeles and was n’t able to be sent to him before the meeting.

Answer the questions（根据以下内容回答问题）（12分）In recent years, a number of Chinese technological innovation（科技创新）have been making waves around the world. Among them, four stand out. They are known as “four new great inventions” of modern China. They have made our daily lives more convenient.High-speed trainsChina created its first high-speed railway line in2008. Since then, the number of passenger trips has grownby over 30 percent every year. By 2016, more than 5 billiontrips had been taken on china’s bullet trains (高铁),according to Xinhua News Agency.China is currently working on the next-generation bullet trains that will have a top speed of 400 kilometers per hour. By 2020, one-fifth of the country’s 150,000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains. This network will link more than 80 percent of major cities across China, said Xinhua.Mobile paymentMobile payment is turning China into a “cashless society” ledby third-party payment companies like Alipay. For example, instead of paying by cash, customers now pay for goods simply by typing a short password into Alipay app on their mobile devices.Users can also pay their bills through Alipay, such as their water and electricity bills. Alipay also supports cross-border（跨境的）online and in-store payment, which allows users to buy things on international websites and apps.Shared bikesShared bike services started in Western countries. ButChina has surprised the world with how quickly it has adopteddockless (无桩的) shared bikes.Unlike traditional bike-sharing method, dockless bikesallow users to simply pick up or park a bike on the street through GPS and smartphone apps.To unlock a bike, you just need to scan a QR code on a shared bike with a smartphone app. After you finish riding, you can park it at available parking areas, lock it and pay for ride through mobile payment services.Online shoppingWith around 751 million internet users, China has long been the world’s largest and fastest-growing online shopping market.Online shopping now accounts for 15.5 percent of totalretail sales in China, according to Xinhua. Thanks to lower costsand fewer licensing requirements (执照要求), it’s easier forsellers to open an online shop in China than a brick-and-mortarshop（实体店）.It also helped to create jobs of rural areas. In 2016, online shopping created more than 20 million jobs in rural areas, with over 8.1 million running their own online shops, said Xinhua.88.

The other carried a wood en cage with a chicken inside it.“Only one reward can be yours,” the queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That’s easy,” Peter said. “I’ll take the chicken.” Some of thequeen’s men laughed. It was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice.“And why did you choose the chicken?” the queen asked. “Well, I don’t know much about jewels ,” Peter answered. “But I do know about chickens. The chicken will provide egg s for my family for a long while.”Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice,” she said. “That mirror may look fancy. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken and bowed. “Thank you, your majesty.”“You are a smart child,” the queen added. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) (12分)A Cloud of Hope and DangerA small cloud floats through the air in a hospitaloperating room. In the room a patient, suffering fromcancer, lies on a table. The cloud surrounds(包围) thepatient, covering her body and filling her lungs(肺). Thecloud is not smoke or steam. It is made of millions ofmicroscopic robots called nanorobots(纳米机器人). These tiny robots move from cell(细胞) to cell in the patient’s body, destroying the cancer.Fighting cancer with nanorobots is only an idea today, but scientists say that it could be possible in the future. Using nanorobots for good purposes such as fighting disease or repairing the environment may be the solution to many of today’s problems.However, nanorobots could be a dangerous risk as well. Since nanorobots are so tiny, they will have to work in large teams of many thousands to many millions. For this reason, nanorobots will have to be programmed to build themselves. Scientists will not have the ability to build millions of nanorobots one by one.This ability to reproduce is making some scientists worried. What if something goes wrong in the programming? Quite a lot of crazy nanorobots would be far worse than any disease. Some people think that if they get out of control, nanorobots could destroy the Earth.What should be done? Should we continue researching nanorobots or should we search for other methods? This is one of the many difficult decisions that we have to make in the future.88.What is the cloud in the passage, smoke and steam or microscopic robots?________________________________________________________________________89.What can be the good use of nanorobots for us?________________________________________________________________________90.Why will nanarobots have to work in large teams?________________________________________________________________________91.What makes it possible for nanorobots build themselves?________________________________________________________________________92.Can you give the passage another title?________________________________________________________________________93.Are you for or against using nanorobots in the future?

They are considered as national Array treasure because China is their hometown. Giant pandas are beautifulblack-and-white animals. They look like bears, but they are very quietand peaceful. People couldn’t see giant pandas in different areas before Chinese sent them to other places in the world. The pair of giant pandas, which were offered by the Chinese mainland (大陆), arrived in Taiwan on December 23, 2018. The pandas, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, are not only a gift from the mainland but also friendship ambassadors (大使) to Taiwan. Two staff members from the Wolong Nature Reserve (卧龙自然保护区) went to Taiwan together with the pandas. They also took a week’s worth of the pandas’ favourite food, such as fresh bamboo, for giant pandas only eat bamboo shoots and leaves, they never eat meat.Taipei Zoo prepared well for the four-year-old national treasure. To be familiar with the pandas, five staff members from the zoo had worked with them in Sichuan for some time. The new panda house covers an area of 5,500 square metres. Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan live in two rooms with air conditioning . They also enjoy a 765-square-metre garden. And 35 workers, as well as a lot of volunteers, are ready to serve the famous pair.

He had h (98) had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream of my poor friend had had for so many years ended there.( E )From the first day he entered my junior-high classroom, Willard P. Franklin existed in his own world, shutting out his classmates and teachers. Even a “Good Morning, Willard” from me, his class teacher, received only a word“Morning”. His classmates could get the same reply, too . Willard was completely a loner who seemed to have no desire or need to break his barrier (障碍) of silence.Shortly after the Thanksgiving holiday, we received the word of the annual Christmas collection of money for the less fortunate people in our school district.“Christmas is a season of giving,” I told my students. “There are a few student s in the school who might not have a happy holiday season. By contributing to our Christmas collection, you will help buy food, clothing and toys for these needy people. We start the collectiontomorrow.”When I called for the contributions the next day, I discovered that almost everyone had forgotten, except for Willard P. Franklin. The boy dug deep into his pants pockets as he strolled up to my desk. Carefully, he dropped two quarters into the small container.“I don’t need any milk for lunch,” he said very quietly. For a moment, just a moment, he smiled. Then he turned and walked back to his desk.After school, I took our meager (少量的) contributions to the school principal. I couldn’t help sharing the incident that had taken place.“I may be wrong, but I believe Willard might be getting ready to become a part of the world around him,” I told the principal.“Yes, I believe it sounds hopeful,” he nodded. “And I think that we might do well to have him share a bit of his world with us. I just received a list of the poor families in our school who most need help through the Christmas collection. Here, take a look at it.”As I gazed down to read, I found Willard P.

B 12. C 13. B【解析】【原文】“You are never too old to learn.” is what my father always told me, and he proved it. At the age of 55, he quit working to become a full-time student at our local university, studying government and political science. I understand now why he did it. Education is kind of wasted on the young. Sure, we teach children because young minds are flexible and open, but making them memorize hundreds of facts is a poor substitution for learning. I think the greatest service we can do is to teach children to ask questions and guide them in seeking the answers for themselves. “What’s the capital of Zimbabwe?” is a much less important question than, “What problems do people have in Zimbabwe?” If people were taught to ask the right q uestionsfrom a young age, the world wouldn’t be as hard to understand when they’re older. I think that’s the way my father saw it.QuestionsWhat did his father do later in his life?Which of the following statement is wrong about memorizing facts?What’s his father’s opinion on the main purpose of education? .Questions are based on the following passage.【此处有音频，请去附件查看】14.A.

B 16. D【解析】【原文】Readers in Grenoble, a French city, can now enjoy a small bite of fiction instead of the snacks from the vending machine after the introduction of eight short-story dispensers.The free stories are available at the touch of a button, printing out on rolls of paper like a receipt. Readers are able to choose one minute, three minutes or five minutes of fiction. Just two weeks since launch, more than 10,000 stories have already been printed.The feedback is overwhelmingly positive. There are only eight dispensers in the city of Grenoble for now, but more are planned to be introduced. Requests are from all over the world—Australia, the US, Canada, Russia, Greece, Italy and Chile.Pleplé, the French publisher, hopes the stories will be used to fill the “dead time” of a regular journey to and from the place of one’s work. In the bus or the metro, everyone can make the most of these moments to read short stories, poems or short comics.The stories are drawn from the more than 60,000 stories on Short édition’s community website. Users are not able to choose what type of story—romantic, fantastical or comic—they would like to read.Pleplé said he and his team initially came up with the idea when having a break at the snack vending machine. They thought it would be cool to have it for short stories. Then, a couple of days later, the short-story dispenser was born.Questions:What is the purpose of the story dispenser?Which of the following is not true about the stories?Where does Pleplé’s inspiration come from?Questions are based on the following passage.【此处有音频，请去附件查看】17.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith came from Norway many years ago and lived on a dairy farm in Oxford. Their four children grew up there. Two boys helped their father take care of the farm and the daughters helped the mother with housework. They thought there was always a lot of hard work to do.At present, Mr. and Mrs. Smith cannot work as hard as they did before. One son runs the farm instead of his father. They do work easily by using several machines. One girl is married to a farmer and lives nearby. But the other two children have moved away to London. The other boy works as a manager of a dairy factory. Some of the milk used by the factory comes from their farm.The youngest girl is a teacher after she graduated.The story of the Smiths is not unusual. Although life on the farm has changed a lot, farming is still a very important part. However, city life attracts young people like the young Smiths.
